MP4 Frame Extractor & ZIP Download
About this tool
Load a local MP4 video, fine-tune the extraction range and sampling method, turn frames into images, and save everything as a ZIP archive. The tool targets MP4 containers with browser-playable codecs such as H.264/AVC + AAC and does not support H.265/HEVC. It checks browser limits so even 8K-class sources are handled safely. All processing happens in your browser (nothing is uploaded).

How to use
- Select an MP4 under “Video file” and review playback position and audio in the preview.
- Use the seek bar or numeric inputs to define the start and end of the range.
- Choose an extraction mode and configure interval/count, output format, scale, and filename pattern.
- Check the estimated count and click “Start extraction.” Monitor the progress indicator; cancel mid-process if necessary.
- When processing completes, a ZIP download starts automatically. You can also capture a single frame from the preview.
Notes
- Very high resolutions (e.g., 8K) may exceed browser canvas limits. Lower the scale or prepare a downscaled video.
- Only MP4 files with hardware-playable codecs such as H.264/AVC + AAC are supported. H.265/HEVC and AV1 are not.
- If the browser supports requestVideoFrameCallback, the estimated FPS updates during preview for better accuracy.
- VFR (variable frame rate) videos may yield a few extra or missing frames even when extracting all frames.
Warnings
- Hardware decoding support varies by browser. Safari prefers H.264, Firefox may struggle with high resolutions, and Chrome/Edge depend on OS support—this tool does not handle H.265/HEVC or AV1.
- Extraction can use significant memory. For large frame counts, split the range or reduce the scale.
- Only local files are supported; remote URLs cannot be loaded. The browser may become sluggish while the ZIP is created.
